The Silverstone Classic Sale 2015
1966 Jaguar Mk2
Manual with O/D
Lot No.: 823
Registration: RTW 960D
Chassis Number: 234582DN

The last time this delightful MkII 3.8 manual with over drive graced the roads was in 2000, and it has been dry stored since then. It's offered for sale now having been sympathetically re-commissioned, including a full service, a new fuel tank, new chrome wire wheels, tyres and an amount of cosmetic detailing.

The comprehensive history folder contains details of the restoration that took place in 1988 with over 100 photographs of the process, including an engine and gearbox rebuild and an interior re-trim. Invoices with the car detail the £13,250 that was spent. Documentation would suggest that, at this time, the mileage was 5,705 and it now reads 13,000.

The V5c shows just six former keepers and a recent MoT has been issued.

Having been lovingly cared for throughout its life, this everyday usable classic, with power steering, will prove to be a faithful steed and offers a new owner many happy miles of stylish motoring.

Car now offered at:

ckl.co.uk/vehicle-details/used-jaguar-mk2-road-for-sale-ckl-sales-cars-u46/

Seller's description:

CKL are delighted to offer this Jaguar MKII 3.8 RHD, with under 16,000 miles on the clock.

Due to its high speed and acceleration capabilities, the MKII became highly popular with the Police Force and subsequently with those attempting to get away from said force. It wasn’t long before the MKII would find itself on circuits around the UK and would capture the attention of period racers such as Graham Hill and Jack Sears.

The MKII on offer features the correct black exterior paintwork and a red leather interior with wood dash paneling, all in wonderful condition. In 1988, restoration began to bring the MKII back to the standard on offer today. During the restoration, the 3.8 engine and gearbox (with overdrive unit) have been completely refreshed. The decision was also made to install power steering, chrome wire-wheels, new tyres, a new fuel tank and various body detailing. The recorded mileage prior to restoration was just 5,705 miles.

Subject to great care and dry storage over the years, preserving its everyday usability on today’s roads. This fine example combines speed with style exceptionally well, and should be highly considered by all classic car enthusiasts.
